Roots. Yeah, that's the name. Sounds all sentimental and shit but honestly I came back to this pixel town just to figure out why the hell my life fell apart. Some hacker stole my app, my brainchild, and suddenly I'm back in my childhood bedroom with my mom fussing around. The game is a sandbox RPG, you just click around, talk to people, and the sex scenes unlock like a filthy point and click adventure. The models are 3DCG, not super polished, but there's something about the way the light hits the skin during a titfuck that just works. The ahegao faces are over the top, eyes rolling back, tongue out, the whole deal.

I spent way too long trying to trigger the blackmail route with the neighbor. You have to fail a specific hacking minigame, which is never explained. Then you catch her, I don't know, stealing or something, and the whole thing spirals into this BDSM thing with ropes and spanking. My favorite part was the footjob scene you get if you buy her the cheap sandals from the shop, not the expensive heels. That's the kind of detail that makes a completionist like me sweat. The incest stuff with the mom and the sister is there from the start, no subtlety. You can literally grope your sister while she's watching TV if your "courage" stat is high enough. The voyeurism mechanic is buggy though. I set up the camera in the bathroom, got the notification, but the scene didn't record. Just a black screen. Annoying as hell.

The group sex scenes are animated, and they're surprisingly smooth for a game that looks like this. There's a creampie ending for almost every vaginal scene, which is a nice touch. The sandbox part gets tedious. Walking back and forth to the shop to buy sex toys for the anal scene with the librarian, I forgot what I was doing halfway through. The game is on mobile too, which is how I played it mostly, on my phone under the covers like a degenerate. The handjob scene from the virgin classmate behind the gym, the one where she uses her big tits right after, that's a core memory now. The dialogue is crap, pure crap, but you don't play this for the story about stolen apps. You play it to see every single ahegao face and fill the gallery. And I will. Even if that voyeur bug never gets fixed.
